Warping implies non-uniform heating.

No probably, it indicates non-uniform coefficients of expansion.

Hi Al!  This isn't necessarily true... what about a cookie sheet 
with a coating (e.g. Teflon, Silverstone, etc.) on it?  Seems the
coating material would probably have a different thermal expansion
than the sheet itself, thus warping the sheet when heated.

Hey guy! But seriously, dbdan, that sounds like a silly way to design
a cookie sheet.
